Everyone knows that to make it in this business you need more than just to like the music; you need to live it and this is what "The Lives" do. Through every vein of this musical collective pumps artistic inspiration and a desire to spread a message through sound. Jimbo Lawton and Shem Booth–Spain are the Lives, both having a successful background fronting various bands. United over a couple of pints and a impromptu jam in a pub these two singer/songwriter/guitarist forces have come together complementing and adding three fold layers to each others music. Shem Booth-Spain creates a slick combination of earnest vocals and loose guitars, while Jimbo Lawton creates emotive lyrics delivered with a powerful voice. Their inspirations of John Lennon, Neil Young, Oasis, Electric Light Orchestra, Brian Eno, Killers, MGMT and Damien Rice are put into a melting pot to create, what we hope you will find, an arousing blend! If you come to a gig not only will you not be disappointed but you will not fail to be charmed by Jimbo and Shem’s banter. How could you not tell all your friends about "The Lives"!
